Review Summary

I've had these rubber eyecups on every one of my Nikon FMs, FEs, and FM2Ns since I started shooting film in 1978. For me this is an indispensable accessory. I am able to better see my viewfinder readings; I don't have to worry about sidelight or backlight coming through. When attached, the bottom half flips up, allowing you to open the film door without any problem. It is held by the round viewfinder eyepiece that screws onto the camera, so you must have that to secure it tightly. Very well made, with metal ring and heavy rubber cup. Once you use it you won't want to shoot without it. Great product.

I purchased this for my Nikon FE. It’s pretty wonderful. My only complaint would be how fussy it is when opening the back of the camera to remove/reload film.

I bought this eyepiece to use on an older Nikon FM3A 35mm film camera. To use it, unscrew the round diopter lens at the viewfinder and install this item between the diopter lens and the viewfinder. Screw the diopter lens back in tightly and check it from time to time as constant camera usage 'could' result in the rubber eyepiece loosening the diopter lens. You don't want to lose these pieces, so checking them occasionally is a good idea. However, mine is screwed in tightly and has shown no signs of loosening with much camera handling.

This is an original part and fits perfectly. Be sure to securely screw in in!

You sort of have to figure this one out, because it comes with no instructions. The way I think it works is that the rubber cup is held by the original screw-in type viewfinder.

Great fit and finish, necessary for those who wear glasses,and those of us who photograph in the Southwest, with harsh lighting is the reality......

Seems to work a bit better than the original (1977) version. A bit stiffer, which is good, yet flips up easily to open the camera back.

I doubt I'll use an SLR without an eyecup ever again.

Remember to get the replacement eyepiece to go with it. I love mine, it's much more functional then the standard one that came with my D300.

Used with the replacement eyepiece finder for the FE, you can now have an eyecup on your D-300 rather than the one that came with the camera. Unfortunately, the replacement eyepiece finder easily unscrews (especially while carrying the camera) with the result that the eyecup is lost. I bought two just to be on the safe side.
